Dive Brief:

• A new survey finds slowing growth in online class enrollment at colleges and universities and low confidence among academic leaders in MOOCs.
• There is good news for online education: One-third of college students are taking an online course and 90% of academic leaders surveyed said most college students soon will.
• The bad news for MOOCs is that less than 25% of administrators surveyed said they are "a sustainable method for offering online courses."

Dive Insight:

The report has tracked the growth of online education for more than 10 years. 2012 was the first year the survey asked about MOOCs. Overall, the report contains figures that seem to acknowledge that online learning is part of the higher education landscape but question whether MOOCs per se have a long-term future.
